Another Dry Summer Day in The Upper Galilee, Oil on Canvas, 30” X 20”
This painting captures the energetic feel of summer right before a heat wave becomes unbearable. The jazzy vibrant yellow tones ranging from dark to light are picked up and reflected on the ground, while the green tones in the horizon and the light-colored opening in the sky signal a reassuring feel of hopefulness. The palette knife strokes of the sky are multi directional creating a layered effect and flow with a heat haze glistening in the horizon line. A warm palette of colors depicts the ground, while brown lines are etched to give the perception of depth and movement.
It appears that the direction of the rolling hills is attracted to and lead towards the green patch in the horizon just as animals are drawn to a watering hole. This composition evokes the visceral sensations of summer, capturing the vibrant energy and the palpable tension that precedes the arrival of heat. The interplay of warm yellows and earthy tones creates a dynamic contrast that draws the viewer into the scene, inviting them to experience the heat and life of the landscape.
The use of light and shadow adds dimension to the rolling hills, enhancing the feeling of movement and inviting the eye to explore every curve and contour. The green patch on the horizon stands out as a symbol of life and refreshment, a beacon of hope amid the sweltering heat.
